The meaning of saying this is self-evident. Otherwise, why would these two people, who are the most noble people in the Hui Kingdom, have to apologize to a little minister's daughter?
However, I am still worried that because of this matter, I will be dissatisfied and something unexpected will happen to Chu Lan within these three days.
Although this matter was as Zhang Qingjiu said, when they heard her straightforward question, Chu Wei and Murong Qingwan still felt a little confused on their faces.
After all, he promised her so swornly at the beginning, and even issued an imperial edict specifically for this purpose. As the saying goes, Jun Wu was joking, but now it seems like burning a bridge across the river. No matter how you look at it, it is their fault.
If it were anyone else, they would have been able to directly issue an order to facilitate this matter. Isn't this the immortal who just issued an order?
But unfortunately, this is Chu Lan.
Not to mention that this is his most beloved son, others don't know Chu Lan's temperament. Don't they, as parents, know it?
If he doesn't want to do something, even if you put a knife to his neck, you can't force him to submit.
"Miss Zhang." Chu Wei sighed softly, and the queen looked at each other and spoke slowly, "It's not that the queen and I are unwilling, it's just that there are some things that may not be fulfilled if we force them to do so. In order to express the relationship between the queen and me,
Sorry, we want to adopt you as our adopted daughter, make you a princess, and give you a special fiefdom, what do you think?"
Their words were very tactful and even very polite.
The conditions given are also very sincere. Not to mention a common girl, even an ordinary princess may not receive such treatment.
But this is not possible for Zhang Qingjiu.
If she were adopted as an adopted daughter by them and made a princess, wouldn't she and Chu Lan be treated as brother and sister?
If so, how could she sleep with him and get her soul back? She did have the courage, but she still wanted to save face. The name of "brother-sister incest" would not be with her for the rest of her life?
Narrowing his eyes, Zhang Qingjiu raised his head and said, "I understand. Thank you Your Majesty and the Queen for your kindness. I just want to ask you, if possible, are you willing to let me marry the prince?"
What she wants is not a noble status or a powerful position, but an opportunity to get close to Chu Lan.
If they are unwilling to give it, then don't blame her for being unkind and using her own means to get what she wants.
Seeing the cold look on Zhang Qingjiu's face, Chu Wei's heart tightened inexplicably.
In terms of family status, as the prime minister's legitimate daughter, she is undoubtedly the best candidate for the Crown Princess; in terms of intelligence and talent, what she has shown now is enough to make her the leader of the Eastern Palace and Harem; even though there have been some in the past,
Inappropriate rumors cannot cover up her current brilliance.
But he also has his own worries, which is whether the woman in front of him will treat the prince sincerely.
With the abilities she has shown, if she has evil intentions towards the prince, and leaving her as the prince, wouldn't it be inviting a wolf into the house?
And this was also the most important reason why he and the Queen agreed to the Crown Prince's request and not let Zhang Qingjiu become the Crown Princess after careful consideration.
Chu Wei was worthy of being the king of a country, but he figured out the crux of it in a moment. He did not answer Zhang Qingjiu immediately, but asked instead: "If you become the crown prince, will you treat the prince sincerely and protect him?"
comprehensive?"
Zhang Qingjiu was stunned for a moment, looked into Chu Wei's deep eyes, slowly raised his right hand, and said word by word: "My daughter Zhang Qingjiu swears that I have no evil intentions towards the prince."
If you have a heart, let me be struck by thunder."
What she wants is not Chu Lan's life, but that he, Chu Lan, lives well.
Zhang Qingjiu's voice was not loud, but in this empty palace, it was inexplicably deafening.
Seeing Zhang Qingjiu like this, Murong Wanqing felt moved in her heart, her eyes were red, and she quickly stepped forward to help him up, "Good boy, it's not that we don't believe you, you don't have to be like this."
She is a mother and a queen. In this harem, which eats people without spitting out their bones, she has seen too many intrigues and deceptions, and she has to hide her sincerity when talking to others.
How could you not be moved at this moment?
When Chu Wei heard these words, his eyes changed from complicated to emotional. He sighed softly and said, "If the Crown Prince is willing, you are naturally the best choice for the Crown Princess."
After receiving Chu Wei's promise, Zhang Qingjiu nodded calmly and looked at the table not far away, "Then please take back this imperial edict. His Highness the Crown Prince regrets the marriage now, and I have no regrets. But the previous one
It is an imperial edict that your majesty and the empress will one day tell the world."
"You..." Upon hearing what Zhang Qingjiu said, Chu Wei and the Queen were immediately startled. They turned to look where Zhang Qingjiu was looking, with a flash of surprise in their eyes.
What was placed on the table was an imperial edict drawn up by Chu Wei before he came here, and the content of the imperial edict was to seal Qingjiu as a princess with a different surname and grant her a fiefdom to a county.
But she refused without hesitation?
They didn't delve into why Zhang Qingjiu guessed the content, or maybe in the hearts of Chu Wei and the queen, they already felt that it was normal for her to know what the imperial edict was.
only……
Murong Qingwan hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but said, "Good boy, you have to think carefully. If the Crown Prince disagrees all the time, I and His Majesty will not force the edict to be issued. Then it is really possible that the imperial edict will be issued again."
There is no chance of seeing the light of day again, and this...is delaying a major event in your life, probably for the rest of your life."
Her tone was sincere and her expression of concern could not be faked.
Zhang Qingjiu sighed, with a wry smile on his lips, and lowered his eyes, "Queen, sometimes people really can't meet a good person, otherwise if they can't be with him, they won't be able to do it wholeheartedly.
If you love others, wouldn't it be sad and pitiful to live like this for a lifetime?"
Hearing what Zhang Qingjiu said, Murong Qingwan was suddenly startled. She looked at Chu Wei almost subconsciously, only to find that the other party was also casting the same look at her.
That was more than 20 years of mutual understanding and congeniality.
After a long time, Murong Qingwan sighed softly and patted Zhang Qingjiu's hand, "Good boy, I know your wish. We will definitely keep this imperial edict for you, and I and Your Majesty will also
I often persuade the prince, hoping that good things will come soon."
After saying this, Murong Qingwan paused again, and her expression became a little more emotional, "But if one day you have a sweetheart, you must tell me, I... I will still accept you as your righteousness with Your Majesty.
Girl, I will make you a princess and marry you off in a glorious way."
This is her promise as a queen, her expectation as a mother, and her blessing as a woman.
Hearing these words, Zhang Qingjiu couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Because what she just said was 50% true and 50% false.
